Steam Coffee Shop, located on Piața Charles de Gaulle, is the kind of place you come back to—not just for the top-tier coffee, but for the quiet sense of ease it brings in the middle of a bustling city. Just steps away from Herăstrău Park, tucked into a leafy corner, it’s the perfect spot to kick off your morning or unwind mid-day with something warm in your cup.
The story of Steam began with a genuine love for specialty coffee and a desire to create a small, soulful space where quality always comes first. One of the early pioneers of the third wave coffee scene in Bucharest, Steam has grown over time, but it’s stayed true to its roots: simple, authentic, and people-focused. The beans are thoughtfully sourced, the baristas are skilled and welcoming, and the vibe is laid-back—no fuss, just really good coffee.
If you’re in the area, it’s well worth the stop. Great espresso, friendly faces, and a cozy spot to breathe.
The shop is open daily from 7:30 AM to 7:00 PM.
